Proposal: Ottawa and Arizona

[Patty Ice]

You called it but man how any Sen fan can be happy about giving this pick when Haula literally sat for 2 months and signed for less is beyond me.

Entirely possible that the Sens just simply lost out to the Preds on signing Haula and this was a fallback.

To Ottawa:
Derek Stepan - 1yr @6.500

To Arizona:
DAL 2nd round pick (~60th overall)

Arizona is tight up against the cap and could use some relief. 6.500 is no chump change in the flat cap world. They also have no picks in the first 3 rounds, and no 1st or 3rd next year. I assume they would welcome a pick at this point.

Ottawa could use a stopgap center if they trade Tierney. They can also recoup assets for Stepan at the deadline, and his salary is only 2.000 once his bonus is paid.

Excuse me good person - might you have next weeks Lotto numbers?

OP for the win! Nicely done.

 

[KevinRedkey]

Lol. There should have been no chance but good call

To be fair, you weren't the only one that was opposed to it.

Happy Holidays my dude

Is Haula really a guy you want playing mentor role? Stepan seems like much better guy to groom next generation in Ottawa.
